Agreed! (also) I was trying to respond to someone else and my response somehow got put on this comment. so if you saw that, please disregard! lol I deleted it an put it in the right place. TH-cam comments have been weird for me lately.
Agree! The Christian org that I’m in has the nerve to show horrific Bible scenes in their dramas during conventions and the believers around will 👏 their hands after watching it. I was just stunned watching them and felt pity to them, that they lack natural affection.😢
Exactly. The worst thing is (if it were factual...thank goodness it's not) - think about being stuck forever in 'heaven' with the type of people that - 1) Actually AGREE with this filth... 2) People that are OK with throwing God's son under the bus for their own 'sins' instead of them, so they can get off the hook (when they 'likely' would never allow their own child to suffer for their [the parent's] crimes)... 3) People who would be happy and joyous in the face of knowing most other people they've known and loved are suffering forever - just for believing a bit differently on just a few subjects... THOSE are the type of people you're stuck with! NO THANK YOU! If there was a half-way good God, I doubt even HE would want to be STUCK with those types of people!
@@lh1673 - The other thing is how those same believers would probably boo and shake their heads in disgust if those very same scenes were pulled from the Quran, the Vedas, or any other sacred text instead. It’s perfectly excusable when it’s their Bible depicting it, but show them equally graphic or gruesome content from other religions, and they’ll all gasp and faint. 🙄
@@Specialeffecks Many of those people might never make it to heaven anyway. They will get to the gates of heaven only to learn man-made climate change was real after all and St. Peter has a few questions for them about why they turned away from their neighbours.
Remember that God hardened the Pharaoh's heart to force him to refuse to free the slaves. Then he punished the citizens of Egypt- who had nothing to do with the decision- with locusts, boils, famine and death. God loves punishing people for things they have no control over.
Him sending the angel of death to kill every all the newborn babies just proves the fact that god is a racist that only cares about his chosen people and he is also sadistic as he easily could have air lifted them out of there. In fact, god is more like Isis or the Janjaweed promoting genocide, grape and s*xual slavery.
The only way I survived these as an evangelical was with thought-terminating cliches. "God sees the big picture and I don't. Even though this doesn't make sense to me, I will trust he knows best." I can't believe the things I excused because I taught I couldn't trust my own sense of right and wrong.

As a mother, I just can't get behind the idea of the biblical God as a loving father. There is nothing my kids could do that would ever make me want to hurt them. They don't always do what I think they should, but I would never wish harm on them because I love them so much. The biblical god is not love. He is narcissism, manipulation, and fear.
Actually it's Astrological Allegory, but the idea is everyone is judged according to their own laws when the books reverse at the end. Which they all do. One Megalithic hour is 240 minutes, or 14,400 seconds (1/4) There are 6 Megalithic hours to the day, each made up of 6 minutes, each of which is 6 seconds long. If the Megalithic hour was divided into 60 minutes, each would be 1,440 of our seconds, times 100 is 144,000. One Megalithic second is 400 of our modern seconds, divided by 60 (to get minutes) is 6.6666666.... 360 ÷ 6.66 is 54 54 x 2 is 108 108 x 2 is 216 To effect this the hands on a clock count out 10 (units of 6) x 10 (units of 6) × 4 (=400 units of 6). Therefore the relationship of the Megalithic second to our current form is mathematically proportional to the ratio between the Sun and Moon. A Megalithic second is 6.66 minutes (400 seconds). A Megalithic Minute is 40 minutes, or 2,400 seconds. 6 x 6 x 6 x 400 = 86,400, the number of seconds in a day. This would mean a clock with 216 seconds would go around 40 times in a day (2160 x 400). This means 1 Megalithic second is 6.66 of our modern minutes, meaning their metric system is based on the Full Moon, of which 360 fit into to the night sky, and 720 will encircle the globe, divided by half gives us the 360 degree circle, and the basis for our present based sixty or seximal system of time. Which is why 1 degree of Arc on the Moon = 100 Megalithic Yards (2700ft). This means the Beast, the hidden hand of the Masonic fraternity, is the Moon; and Time. The white limestone covering of the Pyramids denotes the Pale Moon in Megalithic Ireland, like at New Grange, where Enoch describes a Crystal Palace illuminated by the Full Moon every 19 years. 6 x 6 x 6 is 216, there are 2160 years in an astrological age, and the Moon is 2160 miles in diameter, the solar metonic calendar using 60 6 day weeks produces 1 extra day every 216 years. There are also 216 Megalithic seconds in a day, and 216 letters in the name of the Hebrew God, Just as Solomon has 36 or 72 scrolls, and Muhammed speaks of 72 sects. Enoch also buries 36,525 scrolls, the number of days in a year, times 100. This shows that our current measure of time is based on the principle of 1/6, the basis of an Egyptian Royal Cubit, which effects the arc of a Pendulum like that in a Grandfather Clock, the Sun also does this in the sky over the seasons. But first, they built the first ring at Stonehenge, which is 100 metres (330 ft) wide, with an area of 2160 square feet, a Cube's interior angles also add up to... 2160! This produces a Calendar of 60 6 day weeks plus five. Every 4th year a 366th day makes exactly 61 weeks. This is the basis of the Olympics, to mark a Leap Year, starting with the first Full Moon of the Summer Solstice. This means every 216 years this calendar produces 1 extra day, so after 648 years 3 days must be removed. This is when the Phoenix arrived, and stepped onto the Alter of Ra or Holy Grail, completing the Metonic cycle and bringing the Calendar back into sync with the first New Moon of the Spring equinox. The Capstone of the Pyramid is even called the Benben Stone, the Egyptian Phoenix is called the Bennu. It likely relates to Deneb, in Ophiuchus, the 13th Starsign of the Zodiac. The base of the Pyramid is exactly 13 Acres, as is Teotihuacan, because they share the exact same base dimensions. Such a location would be ideal for calculating the speed of light using the transit of Venus. Incidentally the Great Pyramid's Latitudinal coordinates are the speed of light. 1440 ÷ 108 = 13.333333 11 and 3 are the most sacred Celtic numbers of royalty, and also happen to be the proportions of the Earth to the Moon, and the Great Pyramid. The starsigns also precess 1 degree every 72 years 72 x 3 is 216 2160 ÷ 648 is 3.3333333 The Aztec Calendar also begins with a double transit of Venus, in 3116BC, and ended with one on June 5 2012. The double headed Phoenix. This whole code can be encrypted into a single Pythagorean Triangle of Dimensions 666 by 630, by 216, this is the Key of Solomon, 33 is the inverse of 66. 100 is the "perfect number" because it represents Ten (6 unit) metrics times ten 6 unit metrics: a unit being 6.66 ie 60 x 60 (3600) the number of Arcdegree seconds in a second, or a one second unit on a clock the size of Earth This means seconds represent 10ths of the Moon; 216, or 6 x 6 x 6 (100 ÷ 6 ÷ 6 = 2.7): Euler's number, and the number of feet to a Megalithic Yard, 3/11 is .27 and the number of days in a sidereal month is also 27. 11/3 is 3.66, the number of days in a Canicular leap year, the character of Thoth, Cuchulainn, and Kukulkan, the Dog Star of the Dog days of Sirius, in Assyria, and the star by which the Sothic (Seth) Calendar is determined. Thoth was the Son of Seth, who is portrayed as a Serpent. 3 x 11 is 33, the # of years in a 'Great Solar Return'. As the Sun and Moon inhabit their respective houses of the Zodiac they animate the character within, playing out the dramas and battles we know as myths, for example the Moon traveling through each of the Zodiac houses each month, for a grand total of... 144 (12 x 12) This is why at every Megalithic site we find Theatres, like in "Nazereth" and Gobekli Tepe and Poverty Point, as well as in New Zealand. Metatron/Enoch/Echnaton/Arkenaten's Cube is 13 circles in a Star of David: 13 x 360 is 4680 4680 ÷ 216 is 21.666.. The circumference of the Earth in Nautical Miles is 21,600 This means the basis of the Nautical Mile is the Moon. Calculate the Circumference of the Earth in kms by multiplying the Diameter of the Moon by 18.6, the period of a Metonic Cycle in years to get 40,175.
What's often overlooked on the story of Job is that his wife and children are treated as nothing more than Job's commodities. And, by the supposedly happy ending of Job's story, the original wife and children remain no less dead. This is what I would call a truly evil story. 🤔
A much better book that didn't make the cut at the Council of Nicea is ' The Testament of Job'. His wife didn't die by the way. The most accurate books were left out of the canon Bible. Look at the apocryphal scriptures.

Assist him: *Joshua 10.12-13; 20* “On the day the Lord gave the Amorites over to Israel, Joshua said to the Lord: 'Sun, *STAND STILL* over Gibeon, and you, moon, over the Valley of Aijalon.'

Exactly! I’m always surprised listening at my church when believers will say, we can be thankful God is WAITING for years so people will repent😅I tell myself, BUT during those WAITING years how is it OK for a God to continually watch innocent suffer😢
These are basically all the verses that made me question God’s goodness. And then you bring it up to people you went to church with and it’s “how dare you question God, He’s God, He can do what he wants.” That answer to me just makes it worse lmao
I brought up some of these verses to my therapist (she is a Christian), and she basically told me the same thing. I've been working through the deconstruction of my faith and that made me feel worse lol.
When told “How dare you question god?” my answer is “I don’t question god, I question you. YOU told me a story that doesn’t make sense.” Point is God didn’t tell me anything. People did, and people can and should be questioned. And no, the Bible is just crap people came up with. It’s not more reliable just because they put it down in writing. God never claimed he “inspired” the Bible, people did. And people can and should be questioned. Push back against gaslighting folks!
"But that’s the Old Testament!" they say while glossing over the story of Ananias and Sapphira. Even as a devoted young believer, that story always disturbed me.
@sammur1977 Have you looked into the development of the Bible? Do you know it's derivative of *older* mythologies? I know it's hard, but try using your brain for once. Start with the lectures referenced below by Professor Christine Hayes, who lectures on the Hebrew Bible at Yale University. --------------------------------------------------------- *The Enuma Elish would later be the inspiration for the Hebrew scribes who created the text now known as the biblical Book of Genesis.* Prior to the 19th century CE, the Bible was considered the oldest book in the world and its narratives were thought to be completely original. In the mid-19th century CE, however, European museums, as well as academic and religious institutions, sponsored excavations in Mesopotamia to find physical evidence for historical corroboration of the stories in the Bible. ***These excavations found quite the opposite, however, in that, once cuneiform was translated, it was understood that a number of biblical narratives were Mesopotamian in origin.*** *Famous stories such as the Fall of Man and the Great Flood were originally conceived and written down in Sumer,* translated and modified later in Babylon, and reworked by the Assyrians ***before they were used by the Hebrew scribes for the versions which appear in the Bible.*** ***In revising the Mesopotamian creation story for their own ends, the Hebrew scribes tightened the narrative and the focus but retained the concept of the all-powerful deity who brings order from chaos.*** Marduk, in the Enuma Elish, establishes the recognizable order of the world - *just as God does in the Genesis tale* - and human beings are expected to recognize this great gift and honor the deity through service. *"Enuma Elish - The Babylonian Epic of Creation - Full Text - World History Encyclopedia"* *"Sumerian Is the World's Oldest Written Language | ProLingo"* *"Sumerian Civilization: Inventing the Future - World History Encyclopedia"* ("The Sumerians were the people of southern Mesopotamia whose civilization flourished between c. 4100-1750 BCE."

From a Biblical scholar: "Many stories in the ancient world have their origins in other stories and were borrowed and modified from other or earlier peoples. *For instance, many of the stories now preserved in the Bible are* ***modified*** *versions of stories that existed in the cultures and traditions of Israel’s* ***older*** *contemporaries.* Stories about the creation of the universe, a cataclysmic universal flood, digging wells as land markers, the naming of important cultic sites, gods giving laws to their people, and even stories about gods decreeing the possession of land to their people were all part of the cultural and literary matrix of the ancient Near East. *Biblical scribes freely* ***adopted and modified*** *these stories as a means to express their own identity, origins, and customs."* *"Stories from the Bible"* by Dr Steven DiMattei, from his website *"Biblical Contradictions"* ------------------------------------------------------------------ In addition, look up the below articles. *"Yahweh was just an ancient Canaanite god.

It's astonishing that despite the Bible's depiction of God's destructive actions, we're often led to believe that we're the ones who need forgiveness. This dynamic is comparable to a scenario where a ruler wreaks havoc on their kingdom, causing immense suffering, yet expects their subjects to apologize for being affected by their actions. Shouldn't the one responsible for the harm be seeking forgiveness instead?
He wants your love, praise and worship and if he doesnt get it he will hurt you because he loves you. This is the definition of an abusive relationship and not only that, he also gave us logic and free will which made it impossible for billions of people to actually believe in him. Just think about that, he really wants to force everyone to seek this abusive relationship and beg for his forgiveness like a real sadist.
@@TheZodiacRipper I couldn't agree more. I've read the Torah, the Koran, and the Bible, and I've found contradicting statements. The only consistent theme is that the God of the Bible is responsible for the murder of innocents, deception, lies, and manipulation. Even the horrible acts attributed to the devil were done with permission from the God of the Bible. Furthermore, the God of the Bible's actions far surpass the devil's in terms of horror, despite the devil being depicted as evil. And if you read it, the devil doesn't do anything evil unless the God of the Bible tells him to do so.

The thing with Egypt gets even worse. Pharao wanted to let the Israelites go but God hardened his heart, so there wasn't any reason to force the Egyptians and the often cited free will doesn't mean anything at all.
How did I make it through all these years of being a Christian without seeing these horrible things?! I mean all the years of Sunday School, then being an alter boy, then Campus Crusade for Christ and many, many Bible Studies in which I read the Bible cover to cover several times, plus all the years of readings from the Bible during every Sunday service - and I never gave heed to any of these atrocities and remained steadfast in the idea that “God is love”. Now the scales have fallen from my eyes and I feel angry, deceived and lied to by people that I love. I am willing to give my loved ones a pass, now understanding that they are just as brainwashed as I was, but god does not get a pass. If he is real, he is very, very disturbed and evil. Thank you, Kristi - if there is any kind of supernatural power in the world that at all cares about our wellbeing, then you are surely a gem in his or her crown of glory for helping people wake up to this scandalous racket that has been foisted on humanity by those who would gain power by the subjection of the common person just trying to make it through each day.

@sammur1977 Because it didn't like them worshiping the other gods in their pantheon It was jealous of its brothers and sisters and and parents getting attention
@@sammur1977because their God was the devil. Jesus said so when he rebuked the Israelites/Pharisees in John 8:44 "For you are the children of your father the devil, and you love to do the evil things he does. He was a murderer from the beginning. He has always hated the truth, because there is no truth in him. When he lies, it is consistent with his character; for he is a liar and the father of lies." The God of the Hebrews/OT is indeed the devil who claimed Jesus as his own firstborn son, then had him crucified for the atonement of our sins. This is one of the biggest deceptive lies told in the bible by the apostle Paul, who he himself was from Hebrew descent who also worshipped the devil before he converted to Christianity. He carried his strong Hebrew heritage through in his epistles which included the blood sacrifices of both humans and animals for the atonement of their sins to Jehovah/Yahweh/LORD/Satan. Exodus 13:1, 2 ; Exodus 34:19, 20
As an ex southern Baptist I bring up these verses a lot. Especially to my mom (when we spoke) who believes she is required to love Jesus more than me. There was never any answers, only excuses
“If anyone comes to me and does not hate his father and mother, his wife and children, his brothers and sisters - yes, even his own life - he cannot be my disciple." (Luke 14:26-27)
Something I had typed out. How could a "loving" God pull something like this: I was a Christian, baptized (baptizmo: full immersion) I had three kids. My son and daughter were taken from me at age two and a half and one by my ex-wife. Everytime I found them she'd move again. I was in the military and she was getting child support but still wouldn't let me see them. I always prayed for my kids: John 14:13-14 Whatever you ask in my name, this I will do, that the Father may be glorified in the Son. If you ask me anything in my name, I will do it. Even in combat zones I prayed for them. Then in 2008 my daughter contacted me. She was 19 with kids of her own. Finally in 2018 my websites were doing good and I had money. The last time we spoke she said she was tired of FB and phone calls. She wanted to see me. I told her we could make that happen. But it never did. In 2018 at 28 she was KIDNAPPED and GANG RAPED and SHOT SIXTEEN TIMES. Her body dumped in the park across from our old house. So how can a "merciful" and "loving" God allow this? I never touched her or saw her face to face as a grown woman. I only remember her as a baby. She's a box of ashes now. She left four orphans. You read the chapter and verse. I asked for God's protection in Jesus' name. But NOTHING. How was that out of "context"? How could a loving God not allow me to see my grown daughter even ONCE? And it's true, God, thru proxy, murdered women, children and infants. You don't have to be a theologian to understand that. Yet Christians go out of their way to move the goalpost and attempt to make a round peg fit into a square hole. But if I did that they'd be clamoring for me to take a dirt nap. I struggled with the same thing when I was a Christian. Nothing is taken out of "context", nobody is "misunderstanding" it. th-cam.com/video/qAQ3uMaA9qs/w-d-xo.htmlsi=k13QTludo-H27mgQ

Issue of problem is evil is primarily a Christian thing. Some of the other big religions are perfectly comfortable with the idea that God can be mean and scary and will kill you if you get out of line.
I think it is one of Christianity's faults that the dichotomy of a being with the qualities of perfectly loving, or perfectly evil, is rattled off and accepted without blinking. I don't think those concepts are logically coherent, let alone realistic. I don't think good and bad can be absolutes. I suppose under some definitions it could be true, like Good and evil being defined as how closely to God something was. But that requires rather useless definitions of good and evil.
Christian's continue to endorse and defend these dreadful scriptures, attributing them to sin and free will instead of recognizing the inherent wickedness. I am grateful that I have liberated myself from this mental bondage.😊
Remember, nothing says "love" like crucifying your only child. I have a hard time wrapping my mind around the entire proposition of Christianity, that you need a gruesome sacrifice to atone for sin. I have asked many times why, but never really gotten a satisfactory answer...
@@sammur1977 She's well-versed in the Bible and knows what she's talking about, having been a devoted believer for years. So, don't try to undermine her. Also, I don't believe in a god who punishes his own creations for simply operating within the system he created. Sending your own child to hell for not believing is just plain cruel. I don't fear judgment from god because I simply don't believe in it.
@@sammur1977 It's like you people's brains have been damaged beyond repair by elite priestly scribes claiming to speak for their imaginary god. --------------------------------------------------------- *This website is designed to spread the vicious truth about the Bible. For far too long priests and preachers have completely ignored the vicious criminal acts that the Bible promotes. The so called God of the Bible makes Osama Bin Laden look like a Boy Scout. This God, according to the Bible, is directly responsible for many mass-murders, rapes, pillage, plunder, slavery, child abuse and killing, not to mention the killing of unborn children.* I have included references to the Biblical passages, so grab your Bible and follow along. *It always amazes me how many times this God orders the killing of innocent people even after the Ten Commandments said Thou shall not kill.* For example, God kills 70,000 innocent people because David ordered a census of the people (1 Chronicles 21). God also orders the destruction of 60 cities so that the Israelites can live there. He orders the killing of all the men, women, and children of each city, and the looting of all of value (Deuteronomy 3). He orders another attack and the killing of all the living creatures of the city: men and women, young, and old, as well as oxen sheep, and asses (Joshua 6). In Judges 21 He orders the murder of all the people of Jabesh-gilead, except for the virgin girls who were taken to be forcibly raped and married. When they wanted more virgins, God told them to hide alongside the road and when they saw a girl they liked, kidnap her and forcibly rape her and make her your wife! *Just about every other page in the Old Testament has God killing somebody!* In 2 Kings 10:18-27, God orders the murder of all the worshipers of a different god in their very own church! In total God kills 371,186 people directly and orders another 1,862,265 people murdered The God of the Bible also allows slavery, including selling your own daughter as a sex slave (Exodus 21:1-11), child abuse (Judges 11:29-40 & Isaiah 13:16), and bashing babies against rocks (Hosea 13:16 & Psalms 137:9). *This type of criminal behavior should shock any moral person.* ***Murder, rape, pillage, plunder, slavery, and child abuse can not be justified by saying that some god says it’s OK.*** If more people would actually sit down and read the Bible there would be a lot more atheists like myself. Jesus also promoted the idea that all men should castrate themselves to go to heaven: For there are eunuchs, that were so born from their mother’s womb: and there are eunuchs, that were made eunuchs by men: and there are eunuchs, that made themselves eunuchs for the kingdom of heaven’s sake. He that is able to receive it, let him receive it (Matthew 19:12). *I don’t know why anyone would follow the teachings of someone who literally tells all men to cut off their privates.* The God of the Bible also was a big fan of ritual human sacrifice and animal sacrifice. *And just in case you are thinking that the evil and immoral laws of the Old Testament are no longer in effect, perhaps you should read where Jesus makes it perfectly clear:* It is easier for Heaven and Earth to pass away than for the smallest part of the letter of the law to become invalid (Luke 16:17). There are many more quotes on this topic at my Do Not Ignore the Old Testament web page. If you follow the links on this site you will learn about all the nasty things in the Bible that are usually not talked about by priests and preachers. EvilBible.com Also watch Context!!!!!! by NonStampCollector. (A good video for believers who try and justify Biblical atrocities and immorality by saying "Out of context!)
@@sammur1977Clearly, you never watched her channel as she did a video on her entire life history involved with the church at how she truly believed in god. That how she has proof of this via writings from other people who looked to her as a leader and role model. She knew the bible deeply. And believed truly for a long while.
I know this channel focuses on helping those who are involved in deconstruction, but by golly if it hasn't helped guide me away from the religious cult I was involved in since birth. Claims of love and wisdom from people who show very little love or wisdom. Thank you for your videos.
I've always heard, "if you want to get close to God, read the bible." And when I did that while I was deep in the church and young and impressionable, I overlooked a lot of things in it and was taught to overlook a lot of things. Years later, when I started reading it slowly, closely, and delving into the history of the people and the region and the perspective of the people that wrote the books at the time with a close critical eye, I only made it about 6 chapters into Genesis when I started to ask, "what the actual f!*#!!!??"
Your last part was my reaction decades after leaving Sunday School and reading out of curiosity. I was enraged and incensed reading through random passages knowing there's people inflicting suffering on others based on this book which is neither coherent, an ethical nor moral high ground nor cohesive.
You guys never get it. Yahweh is the creator, God is real. The truth isn’t reading the bible, or listening to pastors or priest. The truth only comes through practice, this is how you can understand god properly
@@Samzo2002 You have no proof. And I believe you are brainwashed. So …. Say what you want but it makes no difference because you have no idea whats going on.
As an early Gen-Xer, the only thing on public TV on Sundays were Voodoo Priests like Billy Graham, Oral Roberts, Pat Robertson, Jimmy Swaggart, Jerry Falwell spewing propaganda. Can't believe this was post-Moon Landing (post-Founding Fathers) USA.
THIS THIS THIS THIS... reading the Bible is what really opened my eyes, my morals will not allow me to endorse a god that does all that, nor his "son" who enables him and encourages following of him.
Epicurean paradox Is God willing to prevent evil, but not able? Then he is not omnipotent. Is he able, but not willing? Then he is malevolent. Is he both able and willing? Then whence cometh evil? Is he neither able nor willing? Then why call him God?
@@TeasLouise "...he made man to have free will to do good or evil and he is just the judge?" In the Bible, God _used_ to directly intervene in people's lives all the time. God hardens people's hearts to suspend free will and make them do things they otherwise wouldn't have done. God straight-up kills one guy for the inexcusable sin of NOT getting his sister-in-law pregnant. God parted the Red Sea. He wiped out humanity down to the last 8 people because he didn't like what his own angels were doing. God intervenes ALL OVER THE PLACE in the Bible. Tell us, when did God decide that putting His own hand into human affairs was a bad thing? And second, back to the post that you commented on: If I were aware that a child in my neighborhood was being SA'd by, say, her uncle on an ongoing basis (Frank Turek actually uses this exact story in some of his speeches), I would do everything in my power to intervene - call CPS, go threaten the uncle, _something,_ which is more than this omnipotent, omniscient and omni-benevolent god is willing to do. This puts me, an agnostic, on a higher moral pedestal than the god of the Bible. I actually CARE about my fellow human beings. If God somewhere decided to be totally hands-off in human affairs, then he loses the status of onmi-benevolent and instead is omni-apathetic, and now there is no difference than there being no God at all. God doesn't give a $h!t about His own creations. Perhaps God is too busy deciding every play of professional sports games. That's the only place He appears these days.
@dslite7985 bruh I care more about a person on the other side of the world, that I've never met, who would hate me instantly upon meeting me, than your god cares about me.
(I.e., I don't want them hurt. I don't want them to suffer. If they are a bad person, I hope they get the help they need and become a better person. And if they don't, and they eventually die, then I'm not going to chase them into the afterlife to punish them. Your god killed babies from HIS OWN SIDE. For NO REASON.)
@@indigopines God helps those who help themselves by their own's ways, meaning that you've to gives something to gets something because everything in this life requires sacrifice.
So true the speaker here is quoting the bible ..its scripture... the scriptures that many believe is from God himself ... And its Shocking barbaric and even children are tortured by his command ...time to grow up and see its written by man alone its an old book of laws and stories and its totally contradictory. ..
This is probably the best video I’ve ever seen of someone succinctly explain these controversial Bible verses in a clear and non-toxic way. I have recently stumbled upon your channel and have to say am very impressed with the content so far. I’m in a situation where my entire family and extended family are evangelical Christian’s and I have only told my wife of my problems with Christianity and how I don’t believe it anymore. It’s good to be among people that believe the same as me sometimes too. Thank you.
RELIGIONS DEGRADE the LIVES and DIGNITIES of HUMAN BEINGS Satan the Devil USES the Pastors and Leaders of all kinds of Religions to trick and deceive all human beings to believe the LIES and false teachings and doctrines about "hellfire", "afterlife", "immortality of the souls", "Trinity", "Armageddon", "rapture", and "reincarnation" that insult, humiliate, and degrade the lives and dignities of human beings and definitely bring and cause the dishonor, disgrace, downfall and ETERNAL DEATHS of Christians, Muslims, Buddhists, Hindus, and fanatics of all kinds of Religions. GOD USES the BIBLE to reveal the TRUTHS that the teaching of Jesus Christ about the "Kingdom of God" written in Luke 4: 43 will definitely bring honor and the favor and reward of ETERNAL LIFE and existence on earth without sufferings, pains, griefs, sickness, and death as written in Revelation 21: 3, 4 NOT to liars, arrogant, merciless, and deceitful persons but ONLY to lowly, ordinary, kind, and respectful persons on earth who honor and obey Jesus Christ as their loving, kind, and merciful Master and Heavenly King in obedience to what's written in Matthew 28: 18 and the teaching of Jesus Christ about the "Resurrection of the Dead" written in John 11: 25, 26 is also NOT for liars, arrogant, merciless, and deceitful persons on earth but the guarantee that loving, kind, considerate, and respectful persons on earth who died recently and thousands of years ago like Abel, Noah, Abraham, Sarah, Isaac, Jacob, Moses, Job, Naomi, Ruth, King David, Jesus Christ's Followers and disciples, and many others will all be RESURRECTED back to life in GOD's right and proper time so they can happily and abundantly live and exist on earth forever as subjects and citizens of the "KINGDOM of GOD" and fully enjoy the eternal love, kindness, goodness, generosities, compassions, favors, and blessings of GOD and his Christ for eternity under the loving and kind rulership, guidance, and protection of Jesus Christ as his GOD and Father's Chosen King and Ruler of the heavens and the earth as written in Revelation 11: 15.
@rmsimpsonau Knowing who Jehovah/Yahweh/LORD is whom Jesus identified as the devil (John 8:44), it's no wonder the devil claimed Jesus as his own firstborn son and condoned his crucifixion, to die a blood thirsty death in the most cruelest, horrendous way imaginable. And for what better reason than to have the devils worshippers believe he died for our sins. This is one of the biggest lies told in the bible by the apostle Paul, who, after his conversion to Christianity, still held onto his strongly held Hebrew heritage and blood sacrificial offerings to his God Yahweh that animal and human blood sacrifices were a requirement for the atonement of their sins. Exodus 13:1, 2; Exodus 34:19, 20
She focused on the gruesome, violent passages, and didn't include some theological jugular veins like *Joshua 10.12-13* “On the day the Lord gave the Amorites over to Israel, Joshua said to the Lord: 'Sun, *STAND STILL* over Gibeon, and you, moon, over the Valley of Aijalon.' So the *Sun* _STOOD STILL,_ and the moon stopped, till the nation avenged itself on its enemies . . . *Genesis 9:18-27:* The sons of Noah who came out of the ark were Shem, Ham and Japheth, and from them came the people of the whole earth. One day, Noah drank some wine, became drunk and lay uncovered inside his tent. Ham, the father of Canaan, saw his father naked . . . . When Noah awoke and found out what had happened, he said, “Cursed be Canaan! The lowest of *SLAVES* will he be to his brothers.” *Genesis 22:1-18* "God said to Abraham, 'Take your son, your only son, whom you _love_ - Isaac - and *SACRIFICE* him on the mountain…' Abraham bound his son Isaac and laid him on the altar. Then he took the knife to slay his son. But the angel of the Lord called out to him, 'Do NOT do anything to him! (April's Fool!). Now I know that you *fear* God. . . Because you have not withheld your only son, Your descendants will take possession of the cities of their enemies, because you have obeyed me.'” *Mathew **15:21**-28* "Leaving that place, Jesus withdrew to the region of Tyre and Sidon. A _Canaanite_ woman from there came to him, crying, 'Lord, Son of David, have mercy on me! My daughter is demon-possessed and suffering terribly.' Jesus answered, 'I was sent _only_ to the lost sheep of *ISRAEL.'* The woman came and knelt before him. 'Lord, help me!' she said. He replied, 'It is not right to take the children’s bread and toss it to the *DOGS.'* 'Yes it is, Lord,' she said. 'Even the dogs eat the crumbs that fall from their master’s table.' Then Jesus said to her, 'Woman, you have great faith! Your request is granted.' And her daughter was healed at that moment." Talk about begging, pleading, fawning sheeple and cynophobia.
I've just been casually listening to this but at like 16minutes I looked up at the screen and said "damn, this is like a proper roasting!" and made this face 😬😂 This is so good I can't believe there's so much of this video to go- you rock!
Also I'm convinced the authors of the bible had baby killing fetishes. "What's in this chapter?"- killing babies, "and the next?"- more baby killing, "how bout this chapter?"- world wide flood that kills all the babies, BUT we save 2 of every animal... To make more babies to torment and kill in later chapters. It's like wtf?
I’m so proud of where I’ve come. I used to be extremely evangelical and I’m so grateful to all my LGBTQ and atheist friends who were so patient with me and taught me so much about the world around me. I owe them my life.. well not like religiously lol but I would do anything for them for sure. I’m currently trying to plant seeds in my religious parents and your videos and mindshifts videos are so helpful. It means a lot to have someone remind you you aren’t the crazy one❤
I believe religion elevates gullibility and cowardice to a pedestal. For me gulliblity and cowardice are serious, even fatal, faults or failings. Your debunking is spot on, Kristi. Priests, nuns, evangelicals must know all these verses and yet they preach on and hide these verses. That speaks of blatant dishonesty.
I'm struggling with my faith and questioning if God is real. I've been told that I would go to Hell if I "deleted" myself. Also, if animals could talk in the Bible, why can't they talk now? I heard my Mom tell my sister that animals don't have souls which is pretty messed up to tell a kid if they want to be reunited with their pets when they pass. I'm very glad I found your channel Kristi, keep up the wonderful work Edit: Sorry this was a long comment plus I really wanted to get this off my chest and it feels good Update: As of 8/18/24 I am no longer a Christian. I have read the Bible and concluded that it is a work of fiction. Angels and demons, Gods and Devils. That's something you hear in fantasy books. For the Christians that see this comment and many others talking about walking away from religion, please don't waste your time on convincing us that we're going to hell. Because hell doesn't exist. Your sky daddy isn't good. Jesus died for us? No he didn't. He died because of his ego and narcissism. Talking animals? Again, that's fantasy and animals can't really talk. You know it and I know it. A loving, caring, god wouldn't damn all of us to hell for living our life. Again to all the Christians that see this and try to convince me or other people that god is good, please do not waste your time
Trust yourself and your intuition. If god exists, they gave you your brain for a reason! Just use it to come to the most honest conclusions you can come to. Don't rush yourself. Just be kind and patient with yourself on this journey
A good god wouldn't mind you thinking with the brain he gave you. Have you seen Kristis video on the hell doctrine? I was where you are 3yrs ago. Keep asking the hard questions. It's OK. You will be OK 💜✨
Again a huge one, explaining and clarifying the confusion, the contradictions in the Bible a collection of 66 books from different time periods. True speech
I have been blessed and healed from past trauma since I've rejected Christianity a year ago and I will never go back to this destructive religion. You so eloquently put into words and deliver in such a gentle manner the truth that a lot of us are waking up to. You've helped so much in my deconstruction and so glad to see you back on YT. :)
@@WS-dd8ow Isaiah 13 Passing chap, 12, which is a mere song of joy, because of the presence of summer, I next come to the burden, oracle, or prophecy of, or concerning Babylon, or winter; for this myth of the year, which I have all along been dealing with, must be made to assume every conceivable form. Isaiah (the Savior the Sun), the son of Amoz (the zodiac), is the seer or prophet. The noise of the nations of the mountains (summer months) comes from the end of the heaven of the Lord (Jahveh), with the weapons of his indignation (the winter) to destroy the whole land - to stop the growth of vegetation (v. 5), and to lay the land desolate, i.e., to deprive it of the direct rays of the Sun (v. 9). Therefore, howl ye; for the (last) day of the Lord (Jahveh = summer) is at hand; "it shall come as a destruction from the Almighty" (v. 6). This last sentence gives but an imperfect idea of the original keshod mishaddai jabo = " it shall come according to the failure of the breasts;" thus implying the gradual cessation of the summer crops; when "they shall be afraid; pangs and sorrows shall take hold of them" (v. 8). "This (equinoctial day) of the Lord (Jahveh) cometh cruel, both with wrath and fierce anger" (v. 9); for the constellations, i.e., the six summer constellations, shall not give their (summer) light, the Sun shall be darkened (as in winter), and the moon shall not cause her light (but that of the Sun) to shine (v. 10). Thus, will I, by the hardships of winter, punish the world for their evil, i.e., for getting into the winter hemisphere? Behold, I will stir up the Medes (middle days, or such as partake of winter and summer) against them, which shall not regard silver (summer); and as for gold (spring), they shall not delight in it, for the time will be winter, the iron age (v. 17). At v. 19 we come to the prophecy of the destruction, or end of Babylon or winter. In her last days, i.e., at the end of winter, Babylon, "the glory of kingdoms, the beauty of the Chaldees' excellency," shall be as (it was) when God (Elohim = Aries in summer) overthrew Sodom and Gomorrah (winter), i.e., it shall remain as it was when Sodom and Gomorrah were overthrown. The question will naturally arise: What was Babylon's condition at the overthrow of Sodom and Gomorrah? Was Babylon the same as Sodom and Gomorrah? Of course, the ordinary reader thinks it was destroyed as were Sodom and Gomorrah, and the text seems to bear out that idea. If destroyed as Sodom and Gomorrah were, then must the same phenomena have happened. There must have been a shower of fire and brimstone, and somebody's wife must have been turned into a pillar of salt, etc. (see Gen. 19, for the details). Again: If it was to remain as Sodom and Gomorrah, then, since there are left no traces of these cities, there can be none of Babylon. This idea is well supported by Dr. Adam Clarke, who relates - "that by the concurrent testimony of modern travelers, no remains, not the least traces of these prodigious works, are now to be found " (comment, in loco.) Babylon (bab = gate; el = ram; on = Sun, the gate of the Ram-Sun, or Eloh = winter solstice) was a mythological city, like all Bible cities. The name may have been transferred to Earth, as in other instances, Heliopolis (Sun-city), etc., for example. Of course, time past can "never be inhabited," except by creatures of the imagination; "doleful creatures," as satyrs, etc. The owls or ostriches must be left out, as they are not mentioned in the Hebrew text. milton woolley.
It's really not the same god. The word "Lord" in the Old testament is Baal. He is basically an evil ruler. Jesus didn't pray to Baal but to the Heavenly Father. Humans wrote both the Old and the New Testament but the New is much better. Jesus said, that we will worship God in Spirit and in Truth. This goes beyond a book. This is about a personal relationship with the Source of All.
@indiawilkins9750 Jesus accused the Jews of worshipping the devil. That was their god. Their god is the Old testament god. You can find the whole true story in the book of John..
If God sees the past, present and future, and all that he creates is perfect. Then why didn't he see Lucifer malfunction and that 1/3 of heaven's angels would rebel against him. And why couldn't he stop Eve from eating the fruit if he could see that she was going to ruin humanity? That is always the questions I asked and pastors brushed it off.

New Subscriber here since your video on Fear of Hell truly set me free. Thank you for all you do and was excited to hear your are neurodivergent as well :) I discovered it my late 30s, so like you - I have a lot to rethink about beliefs and life.
Hi friend :) I'm really happy you've found freedom from these oppressive ideologies. I appreciate your support. I think neurodivergence can be a challenge...but in many ways it can also help us think more critically about these things. In many ways it has been a gift. Thanks so much for tuning in
I'm 30 years old and I'm right there with ya. Rethinking my whole life. Feels like a withdrawal lol it's hard because I've embedded it so much and was deeply into it. But now trying to cast myself out of that Christian lifestyle
Another great video Kristi. You're right on with this. It shocks people when I say that I see the Christian god as evil, but you've laid out so perfectly why. Really well put together video.
As far as I’m concerned, there is no god of any holy book, no such things as ghosts, holy or not. The God of the Bible is fiction, created by ancient people of an ancient time, a god and world view that is obsolete and irrelevant in our world today. Superb work here, incredibly important information for the progress of humanity. Yay! 🎉
So the ancients who developed the first writting system, mathematics, mapped out the heavens, built the ziggarats of Mesopotamia, the great pyramids of Giza and other great wonders and who understood the complexities of the brain didnt know what they were doing when they wrote the sacred text we call the holy bible. Okay 😂 Btw ghost are for real. Its a Ripleys believe it or not.
Same I was born atheist and I remember the first time I ever heard abt Jesus it was thru a song where the lyrics were "when Jesus says yes nobody can say no" and that was playing in my kindergarden- so I asked my teacher "who was Jesus?" And she says sum like "Our father" and I remember going home thinking that I had 2 dads until I asked my mom who Jesus was 💀🖐🏾 I ain't seen either of my fathers since 🤡✨
Exactly! My case, I as former believer of Bible actually didn’t read it clearly and honestly😅I understood it clearly after I woke and listened the Atheists finding the nonsense points and parts of it!
You and Brandon Collins are such a delight for those of us who have deconstructed. Thoughtful and considerate critiques of a faith system that has so many problems and is not worth believing once you recognize those many problems. And I say that as someone who was immersed in the Christian faith until my early 50s when I started recognizing the many issues with the belief system and walked away.
The thing that baffles me the most is that this God, is supposed to be omniscient, omnipotent, omnipresent, and benevolent, but hardly ever acts like it. The flood, the genocide, didn't even work. It was pointless, or at the very least, fleeting. I'm disappointed that i was gonna devote my life to Christianity.
Just by seeing Christian nationalist behave and preach that a monster like Trump is a godsend is enough for me to know that religion is archaic and the single greatest threat to our planet.
It's almost like they developed it as they went. I keep telling people who chant "Jesus loves you" that I don't support genocide and then they try to argue that the flood was warranted 🤦
If the Bible was the inspired word of God, he or she would have written it in a very straightforward way that wouldn’t lead to confusion. The fact that the Bible isn’t written that way, that it’s way too centered on Israel, on men, on leaders, on winning wars and on threatening us with consequences from a narcissistic male God, should make more people reconsider what they believe.
@@docforest4851 Exactly! And those wars! Imagine God was using HUMAN to kill Any LIVING ONES, ANIMALS too, for His so-called GLORY! I deeply regret why I hadn’t recognized earlier this HORRIFIC FACT in this book and was preaching that its the best book!
On the story of Job (which is terrible all around), I always think the worst part is the killing of Job's 10 children. They are simply killed as part of the bet. Sure, Job gets another batch of children at the end, but: What about those 10 individuals whose cold-blooded murder God permitted? Do they get any restitution? They've been robbed of their lives, simply because they were Job's children. They story doesn't give a hoot about them. They are ranked with Job's cattle and camels: replaceable assets.
Job's three daughters and three friends are the thee seasons of winter, spring, and summer (same as Shem/Nahor, Japheth/Abram, and Ham/Haran. The seven sons are the seven months that begins at the spring equinox. Each of the three trinities consists of four signs and four months. All three are in the order of Fire/Scarlet, Earth/Linen, Air/Blue, and Water/Purple.
Believers ask, "Who are you to question God?" I'm not questioning a perfect god, I'm questioning the myth of an evil being claiming to be god. The god described in the bible is an impotent, not-all-knowing, evil being. I would choose not to worship it, even if it were real (which it's not). I ask, "Why choose to worship an evil dictator?"
I wonder if that's why tRump targets Christian Nationals - and they actually praise the convicted felon sex offender, thinking it's perfectly moral to support a 'being' like that (just like their god).
Hi Kristi. You have a french viewer there.. ☮️😉 from France. Yep. 😁 Basically I m atheist since generations, but at some point I wanted to check if my non-belief was indoctrination or mine.

As Penn Jillette once said, “If you believe it’s your god, and your god is infallible, you can’t throw out some of the rules just because you don’t like them.”
What's ironic is I actually did what was preached and studied and read the Bible and the more I did the more frustrated and confused I became! When voiced concerns I was told don't lean unto your own understanding, which made me say to myself naturally WTF! The more I got into the scriptures the more I discovered I didn't believe in most of it I do think are some strong spiritual insights mostly from Jesus, but no longer believe every word and book is divine inspiration.

Bottom line: God exists only in people's heads, and the Bible is 100% man-made, with as much divine inspiration as Hamlet, Harry Potter, The Wind in the Willows, and The Adventures of Alice in Wonderland.

Exactly. The worst thing is (if it were factual...thank goodness it's not) - think about being stuck forever in 'heaven' with the type of people that -
1) Actually AGREE with this filth...
2) People that are OK with throwing God's son under the bus for their own 'sins' instead of them, so they can get off the hook (when they 'likely' would never allow their own child to suffer for their [the parent's] crimes)...
3) People who would be happy and joyous in the face of knowing most other people they've known and loved are suffering forever - just for believing a bit differently on just a few subjects...
THOSE are the type of people you're stuck with!
NO THANK YOU!

@@lh1673 - The other thing is how those same believers would probably boo and shake their heads in disgust if those very same scenes were pulled from the Quran, the Vedas, or any other sacred text instead. It’s perfectly excusable when it’s their Bible depicting it, but show them equally graphic or gruesome content from other religions, and they’ll all gasp and faint. 🙄
@@Specialeffecks Many of those people might never make it to heaven anyway. They will get to the gates of heaven only to learn man-made climate change was real after all and St. Peter has a few questions for them about why they turned away from their neighbours.
Remember that God hardened the Pharaoh's heart to force him to refuse to free the slaves. Then he punished the citizens of Egypt- who had nothing to do with the decision- with locusts, boils, famine and death. God loves punishing people for things they have no control over.
Evil God monster
Him sending the angel of death to kill every all the newborn babies just proves the fact that god is a racist that only cares about his chosen people and he is also sadistic as he easily could have air lifted them out of there. In fact, god is more like Isis or the Janjaweed promoting genocide, grape and s*xual slavery.

The only way I survived these as an evangelical was with thought-terminating cliches. "God sees the big picture and I don't. Even though this doesn't make sense to me, I will trust he knows best."

That's usually a part of the process. Once you start down that road, "Things fall apart".

Puff puff, give.
Actually it's Astrological Allegory, but the idea is everyone is judged according to their own laws when the books reverse at the end. Which they all do.
One Megalithic hour is 240 minutes, or 14,400 seconds (1/4)
There are 6 Megalithic hours to the day, each made up of 6 minutes, each of which is 6 seconds long. If the Megalithic hour was divided into 60 minutes, each would be 1,440 of our seconds, times 100 is 144,000.
One Megalithic second is 400 of our modern seconds, divided by 60 (to get minutes) is 6.6666666....
360 ÷ 6.66 is 54
54 x 2 is 108
108 x 2 is 216
To effect this the hands on a clock count out 10 (units of 6) x 10 (units of 6) × 4 (=400 units of 6). Therefore the relationship of the Megalithic second to our current form is mathematically proportional to the ratio between the Sun and Moon. A Megalithic second is 6.66 minutes (400 seconds). A Megalithic Minute is 40 minutes, or 2,400 seconds. 6 x 6 x 6 x 400 = 86,400, the number of seconds in a day. This would mean a clock with 216 seconds would go around 40 times in a day (2160 x 400).
This means 1 Megalithic second is 6.66 of our modern minutes, meaning their metric system is based on the Full Moon, of which 360 fit into to the night sky, and 720 will encircle the globe, divided by half gives us the 360 degree circle, and the basis for our present based sixty or seximal system of time. Which is why 1 degree of Arc on the Moon = 100 Megalithic Yards (2700ft). This means the Beast, the hidden hand of the Masonic fraternity, is the Moon; and Time. The white limestone covering of the Pyramids denotes the Pale Moon in Megalithic Ireland, like at New Grange, where Enoch describes a Crystal Palace illuminated by the Full Moon every 19 years.
6 x 6 x 6 is 216, there are 2160 years in an astrological age, and the Moon is 2160 miles in diameter, the solar metonic calendar using 60 6 day weeks produces 1 extra day every 216 years. There are also 216 Megalithic seconds in a day, and 216 letters in the name of the Hebrew God, Just as Solomon has 36 or 72 scrolls, and Muhammed speaks of 72 sects.
Enoch also buries 36,525 scrolls, the number of days in a year, times 100. This shows that our current measure of time is based on the principle of 1/6, the basis of an Egyptian Royal Cubit, which effects the arc of a Pendulum like that in a Grandfather Clock, the Sun also does this in the sky over the seasons.
But first, they built the first ring at Stonehenge, which is 100 metres (330 ft) wide, with an area of 2160 square feet, a Cube's interior angles also add up to... 2160!
This produces a Calendar of 60 6 day weeks plus five. Every 4th year a 366th day makes exactly 61 weeks. This is the basis of the Olympics, to mark a Leap Year, starting with the first Full Moon of the Summer Solstice.
This means every 216 years this calendar produces 1 extra day, so after 648 years 3 days must be removed. This is when the Phoenix arrived, and stepped onto the Alter of Ra or Holy Grail, completing the Metonic cycle and bringing the Calendar back into sync with the first New Moon of the Spring equinox. The Capstone of the Pyramid is even called the Benben Stone, the Egyptian Phoenix is called the Bennu. It likely relates to Deneb, in Ophiuchus, the 13th Starsign of the Zodiac. The base of the Pyramid is exactly 13 Acres, as is Teotihuacan, because they share the exact same base dimensions.
Such a location would be ideal for calculating the speed of light using the transit of Venus. Incidentally the Great Pyramid's Latitudinal coordinates are the speed of light.
1440 ÷ 108 = 13.333333
11 and 3 are the most sacred Celtic numbers of royalty, and also happen to be the proportions of the Earth to the Moon, and the Great Pyramid.
The starsigns also precess 1 degree every 72 years
72 x 3 is 216
2160 ÷ 648 is 3.3333333
The Aztec Calendar also begins with a double transit of Venus, in 3116BC, and ended with one on June 5 2012. The double headed Phoenix.
This whole code can be encrypted into a single Pythagorean Triangle of Dimensions 666 by 630, by 216, this is the Key of Solomon, 33 is the inverse of 66.
100 is the "perfect number" because it represents Ten (6 unit) metrics times ten 6 unit metrics: a unit being 6.66
ie 60 x 60 (3600) the number of Arcdegree seconds in a second, or a one second unit on a clock the size of Earth
This means seconds represent 10ths of the Moon; 216, or 6 x 6 x 6 (100 ÷ 6 ÷ 6 = 2.7): Euler's number, and the number of feet to a Megalithic Yard, 3/11 is .27 and the number of days in a sidereal month is also 27.
11/3 is 3.66, the number of days in a Canicular leap year, the character of Thoth, Cuchulainn, and Kukulkan, the Dog Star of the Dog days of Sirius, in Assyria, and the star by which the Sothic (Seth) Calendar is determined. Thoth was the Son of Seth, who is portrayed as a Serpent. 3 x 11 is 33, the # of years in a 'Great Solar Return'. As the Sun and Moon inhabit their respective houses of the Zodiac they animate the character within, playing out the dramas and battles we know as myths, for example the Moon traveling through each of the Zodiac houses each month, for a grand total of... 144 (12 x 12) This is why at every Megalithic site we find Theatres, like in "Nazereth" and Gobekli Tepe and Poverty Point, as well as in New Zealand.
Metatron/Enoch/Echnaton/Arkenaten's Cube is 13 circles in a Star of David:
13 x 360 is 4680
4680 ÷ 216 is 21.666..
The circumference of the Earth in Nautical Miles is 21,600
This means the basis of the Nautical Mile is the Moon.
Calculate the Circumference of the Earth in kms by multiplying the Diameter of the Moon by 18.6, the period of a Metonic Cycle in years to get 40,175.

It really does. And to me, power isn't synonymous with goodness, no matter how much they try to convince me to lick his boots ;)
I brought up some of these verses to my therapist (she is a Christian), and she basically told me the same thing. I've been working through the deconstruction of my faith and that made me feel worse lol.
@@sierra5476 I’m so sorry a therapist told you that. That ridiculous!
They don't realise they worship a dictator 😬
When told “How dare you question god?” my answer is “I don’t question god, I question you. YOU told me a story that doesn’t make sense.”
Point is God didn’t tell me anything. People did, and people can and should be questioned. And no, the Bible is just crap people came up with. It’s not more reliable just because they put it down in writing. God never claimed he “inspired” the Bible, people did. And people can and should be questioned. Push back against gaslighting folks!
"But that’s the Old Testament!" they say while glossing over the story of Ananias and Sapphira. Even as a devoted young believer, that story always disturbed me.
I had that argument thrown at me recently because I said that Christianity has evil things in there.
@sammur1977 Have you looked into the development of the Bible? Do you know it's derivative of *older* mythologies?
I know it's hard, but try using your brain for once. Start with the lectures referenced below by Professor Christine Hayes, who lectures on the Hebrew Bible at Yale University.
---------------------------------------------------------
*The Enuma Elish would later be the inspiration for the Hebrew scribes who created the text now known as the biblical Book of Genesis.* Prior to the 19th century CE, the Bible was considered the oldest book in the world and its narratives were thought to be completely original. In the mid-19th century CE, however, European museums, as well as academic and religious institutions, sponsored excavations in Mesopotamia to find physical evidence for historical corroboration of the stories in the Bible. ***These excavations found quite the opposite, however, in that, once cuneiform was translated, it was understood that a number of biblical narratives were Mesopotamian in origin.***
*Famous stories such as the Fall of Man and the Great Flood were originally conceived and written down in Sumer,* translated and modified later in Babylon, and reworked by the Assyrians ***before they were used by the Hebrew scribes for the versions which appear in the Bible.***
***In revising the Mesopotamian creation story for their own ends, the Hebrew scribes tightened the narrative and the focus but retained the concept of the all-powerful deity who brings order from chaos.*** Marduk, in the Enuma Elish, establishes the recognizable order of the world - *just as God does in the Genesis tale* - and human beings are expected to recognize this great gift and honor the deity through service.

From a Biblical scholar:
"Many stories in the ancient world have their origins in other stories and were borrowed and modified from other or earlier peoples. *For instance, many of the stories now preserved in the Bible are* ***modified*** *versions of stories that existed in the cultures and traditions of Israel’s* ***older*** *contemporaries.* Stories about the creation of the universe, a cataclysmic universal flood, digging wells as land markers, the naming of important cultic sites, gods giving laws to their people, and even stories about gods decreeing the possession of land to their people were all part of the cultural and literary matrix of the ancient Near East. *Biblical scribes freely* ***adopted and modified*** *these stories as a means to express their own identity, origins, and customs."*

It's astonishing that despite the Bible's depiction of God's destructive actions, we're often led to believe that we're the ones who need forgiveness. This dynamic is comparable to a scenario where a ruler wreaks havoc on their kingdom, causing immense suffering, yet expects their subjects to apologize for being affected by their actions. Shouldn't the one responsible for the harm be seeking forgiveness instead?
Evil God
He wants your love, praise and worship and if he doesnt get it he will hurt you because he loves you. This is the definition of an abusive relationship and not only that, he also gave us logic and free will which made it impossible for billions of people to actually believe in him. Just think about that, he really wants to force everyone to seek this abusive relationship and beg for his forgiveness like a real sadist.

@@TheZodiacRipper I couldn't agree more. I've read the Torah, the Koran, and the Bible, and I've found contradicting statements. The only consistent theme is that the God of the Bible is responsible for the murder of innocents, deception, lies, and manipulation. Even the horrible acts attributed to the devil were done with permission from the God of the Bible. Furthermore, the God of the Bible's actions far surpass the devil's in terms of horror, despite the devil being depicted as evil. And if you read it, the devil doesn't do anything evil unless the God of the Bible tells him to do so.

The thing with Egypt gets even worse. Pharao wanted to let the Israelites go but God hardened his heart, so there wasn't any reason to force the Egyptians and the often cited free will doesn't mean anything at all.

How did I make it through all these years of being a Christian without seeing these horrible things?! I mean all the years of Sunday School, then being an alter boy, then Campus Crusade for Christ and many, many Bible Studies in which I read the Bible cover to cover several times, plus all the years of readings from the Bible during every Sunday service - and I never gave heed to any of these atrocities and remained steadfast in the idea that “God is love”. Now the scales have fallen from my eyes and I feel angry, deceived and lied to by people that I love. I am willing to give my loved ones a pass, now understanding that they are just as brainwashed as I was, but god does not get a pass. If he is real, he is very, very disturbed and evil. Thank you, Kristi - if there is any kind of supernatural power in the world that at all cares about our wellbeing, then you are surely a gem in his or her crown of glory for helping people wake up to this scandalous racket that has been foisted on humanity by those who would gain power by the subjection of the common person just trying to make it through each day.

It was jealous of its brothers and sisters and and parents getting attention
@@sammur1977because their God was the devil. Jesus said so when he rebuked the Israelites/Pharisees in John 8:44 "For you are the children of your father the devil, and you love to do the evil things he does. He was a murderer from the beginning. He has always hated the truth, because there is no truth in him. When he lies, it is consistent with his character; for he is a liar and the father of lies."
The God of the Hebrews/OT is indeed the devil who claimed Jesus as his own firstborn son, then had him crucified for the atonement of our sins. This is one of the biggest deceptive lies told in the bible by the apostle Paul, who he himself was from Hebrew descent who also worshipped the devil before he converted to Christianity. He carried his strong Hebrew heritage through in his epistles which included the blood sacrifices of both humans and animals for the atonement of their sins to Jehovah/Yahweh/LORD/Satan.

Something I had typed out. How could a "loving" God pull something like this:
I was a Christian, baptized (baptizmo: full immersion) I had three kids. My son and daughter were taken from me at age two and a half and one by my ex-wife. Everytime I found them she'd move again. I was in the military and she was getting child support but still wouldn't let me see them. I always prayed for my kids:
John 14:13-14
Whatever you ask in my name, this I will do, that the Father may be glorified in the Son. If you ask me anything in my name, I will do it.
Even in combat zones I prayed for them. Then in 2008 my daughter contacted me. She was 19 with kids of her own. Finally in 2018 my websites were doing good and I had money. The last time we spoke she said she was tired of FB and phone calls. She wanted to see me. I told her we could make that happen. But it never did. In 2018 at 28 she was KIDNAPPED and GANG RAPED and SHOT SIXTEEN TIMES. Her body dumped in the park across from our old house. So how can a "merciful" and "loving" God allow this? I never touched her or saw her face to face as a grown woman. I only remember her as a baby. She's a box of ashes now. She left four orphans. You read the chapter and verse. I asked for God's protection in Jesus' name. But NOTHING. How was that out of "context"? How could a loving God not allow me to see my grown daughter even ONCE? And it's true, God, thru proxy, murdered women, children and infants. You don't have to be a theologian to understand that. Yet Christians go out of their way to move the goalpost and attempt to make a round peg fit into a square hole. But if I did that they'd be clamoring for me to take a dirt nap. I struggled with the same thing when I was a Christian. Nothing is taken out of "context", nobody is "misunderstanding" it.

Issue of problem is evil is primarily a Christian thing. Some of the other big religions are perfectly comfortable with the idea that God can be mean and scary and will kill you if you get out of line.
This is true! Even in Judaism many are encouraged to question God and his behaviors! Christians have come a long way 😅🥴
I think it is one of Christianity's faults that the dichotomy of a being with the qualities of perfectly loving, or perfectly evil, is rattled off and accepted without blinking. I don't think those concepts are logically coherent, let alone realistic. I don't think good and bad can be absolutes.
I suppose under some definitions it could be true, like Good and evil being defined as how closely to God something was. But that requires rather useless definitions of good and evil.

*This website is designed to spread the vicious truth about the Bible. For far too long priests and preachers have completely ignored the vicious criminal acts that the Bible promotes. The so called God of the Bible makes Osama Bin Laden look like a Boy Scout. This God, according to the Bible, is directly responsible for many mass-murders, rapes, pillage, plunder, slavery, child abuse and killing, not to mention the killing of unborn children.* I have included references to the Biblical passages, so grab your Bible and follow along.
*It always amazes me how many times this God orders the killing of innocent people even after the Ten Commandments said Thou shall not kill.* For example, God kills 70,000 innocent people because David ordered a census of the people (1 Chronicles 21).
God also orders the destruction of 60 cities so that the Israelites can live there. He orders the killing of all the men, women, and children of each city, and the looting of all of value (Deuteronomy 3). He orders another attack and the killing of all the living creatures of the city: men and women, young, and old, as well as oxen sheep, and asses (Joshua 6). In Judges 21 He orders the murder of all the people of Jabesh-gilead, except for the virgin girls who were taken to be forcibly raped and married. When they wanted more virgins, God told them to hide alongside the road and when they saw a girl they liked, kidnap her and forcibly rape her and make her your wife!
*Just about every other page in the Old Testament has God killing somebody!* In 2 Kings 10:18-27, God orders the murder of all the worshipers of a different god in their very own church! In total God kills 371,186 people directly and orders another 1,862,265 people murdered
The God of the Bible also allows slavery, including selling your own daughter as a sex slave (Exodus 21:1-11), child abuse (Judges 11:29-40 & Isaiah 13:16), and bashing babies against rocks (Hosea 13:16 & Psalms 137:9). *This type of criminal behavior should shock any moral person.*
***Murder, rape, pillage, plunder, slavery, and child abuse can not be justified by saying that some god says it’s OK.*** If more people would actually sit down and read the Bible there would be a lot more atheists like myself. Jesus also promoted the idea that all men should castrate themselves to go to heaven: For there are eunuchs, that were so born from their mother’s womb: and there are eunuchs, that were made eunuchs by men: and there are eunuchs, that made themselves eunuchs for the kingdom of heaven’s sake. He that is able to receive it, let him receive it (Matthew 19:12). *I don’t know why anyone would follow the teachings of someone who literally tells all men to cut off their privates.*
The God of the Bible also was a big fan of ritual human sacrifice and animal sacrifice.
*And just in case you are thinking that the evil and immoral laws of the Old Testament are no longer in effect, perhaps you should read where Jesus makes it perfectly clear:* It is easier for Heaven and Earth to pass away than for the smallest part of the letter of the law to become invalid (Luke 16:17). There are many more quotes on this topic at my Do Not Ignore the Old Testament web page.

Years later, when I started reading it slowly, closely, and delving into the history of the people and the region and the perspective of the people that wrote the books at the time with a close critical eye, I only made it about 6 chapters into Genesis when I started to ask, "what the actual f!*#!!!??"

Epicurean paradox
Is God willing to prevent evil, but not able?
Then he is not omnipotent.
Is he able, but not willing?
Then he is malevolent.
Is he both able and willing?
Then whence cometh evil?
Is he neither able nor willing?

What is he is able but not willing because he made man to have free will to do good or evil and he is just the judge?
@@TeasLouise youre not understanding the problem. think harder.
@@TeasLouise "...he made man to have free will to do good or evil and he is just the judge?"
In the Bible, God _used_ to directly intervene in people's lives all the time. God hardens people's hearts to suspend free will and make them do things they otherwise wouldn't have done. God straight-up kills one guy for the inexcusable sin of NOT getting his sister-in-law pregnant. God parted the Red Sea. He wiped out humanity down to the last 8 people because he didn't like what his own angels were doing. God intervenes ALL OVER THE PLACE in the Bible.
Tell us, when did God decide that putting His own hand into human affairs was a bad thing?
And second, back to the post that you commented on: If I were aware that a child in my neighborhood was being SA'd by, say, her uncle on an ongoing basis (Frank Turek actually uses this exact story in some of his speeches), I would do everything in my power to intervene - call CPS, go threaten the uncle, _something,_ which is more than this omnipotent, omniscient and omni-benevolent god is willing to do.
This puts me, an agnostic, on a higher moral pedestal than the god of the Bible. I actually CARE about my fellow human beings. If God somewhere decided to be totally hands-off in human affairs, then he loses the status of onmi-benevolent and instead is omni-apathetic, and now there is no difference than there being no God at all.
God doesn't give a $h!t about His own creations. Perhaps God is too busy deciding every play of professional sports games. That's the only place He appears these days.

@rmsimpsonau Knowing who Jehovah/Yahweh/LORD is whom Jesus identified as the devil (John 8:44), it's no wonder the devil claimed Jesus as his own firstborn son and condoned his crucifixion, to die a blood thirsty death in the most cruelest, horrendous way imaginable. And for what better reason than to have the devils worshippers believe he died for our sins. This is one of the biggest lies told in the bible by the apostle Paul, who, after his conversion to Christianity, still held onto his strongly held Hebrew heritage and blood sacrificial offerings to his God Yahweh that animal and human blood sacrifices were a requirement for the atonement of their sins. Exodus 13:1, 2; Exodus 34:19, 20
She focused on the gruesome, violent passages, and didn't include some theological jugular veins like *Joshua 10.12-13* “On the day the Lord gave the Amorites over to Israel, Joshua said to the Lord: 'Sun, *STAND STILL* over Gibeon, and you, moon, over the Valley of Aijalon.' So the *Sun* _STOOD STILL,_ and the moon stopped, till the nation avenged itself on its enemies . . .
*Genesis 9:18-27:* The sons of Noah who came out of the ark were Shem, Ham and Japheth, and from them came the people of the whole earth. One day, Noah drank some wine, became drunk and lay uncovered inside his tent. Ham, the father of Canaan, saw his father naked . . . . When Noah awoke and found out what had happened, he said, “Cursed be Canaan! The lowest of *SLAVES* will he be to his brothers.”
*Genesis 22:1-18* "God said to Abraham, 'Take your son, your only son, whom you _love_ - Isaac - and *SACRIFICE* him on the mountain…' Abraham bound his son Isaac and laid him on the altar. Then he took the knife to slay his son. But the angel of the Lord called out to him, 'Do NOT do anything to him! (April's Fool!). Now I know that you *fear* God. . . Because you have not withheld your only son, Your descendants will take possession of the cities of their enemies, because you have obeyed me.'”
*Mathew **15:21**-28* "Leaving that place, Jesus withdrew to the region of Tyre and Sidon.
A _Canaanite_ woman from there came to him, crying, 'Lord, Son of David, have mercy on me!
My daughter is demon-possessed and suffering terribly.'
Jesus answered, 'I was sent _only_ to the lost sheep of *ISRAEL.'*
The woman came and knelt before him. 'Lord, help me!' she said.
He replied, 'It is not right to take the children’s bread and toss it to the *DOGS.'*
'Yes it is, Lord,' she said. 'Even the dogs eat the crumbs that fall from their master’s table.'
Then Jesus said to her, 'Woman, you have great faith! Your request is granted.'
And her daughter was healed at that moment."
Talk about begging, pleading, fawning sheeple and cynophobia.

I owe them my life.. well not like religiously lol but I would do anything for them for sure. I’m currently trying to plant seeds in my religious parents and your videos and mindshifts videos are so helpful. It means a lot to have someone remind you you aren’t the crazy one❤
I believe religion elevates gullibility and cowardice to a pedestal. For me gulliblity and cowardice are serious, even fatal, faults or failings.
Your debunking is spot on, Kristi. Priests, nuns, evangelicals must know all these verses and yet they preach on and hide these verses. That speaks of blatant dishonesty.
Imagine a God knowing the first couple had rebelled by HIS PLAN and there is NO GOOD FUTURE for human, He still allowed them to multiply😅
I'm struggling with my faith and questioning if God is real. I've been told that I would go to Hell if I "deleted" myself. Also, if animals could talk in the Bible, why can't they talk now? I heard my Mom tell my sister that animals don't have souls which is pretty messed up to tell a kid if they want to be reunited with their pets when they pass. I'm very glad I found your channel Kristi, keep up the wonderful work
Edit: Sorry this was a long comment plus I really wanted to get this off my chest and it feels good
Update: As of 8/18/24 I am no longer a Christian. I have read the Bible and concluded that it is a work of fiction. Angels and demons, Gods and Devils. That's something you hear in fantasy books. For the Christians that see this comment and many others talking about walking away from religion, please don't waste your time on convincing us that we're going to hell. Because hell doesn't exist. Your sky daddy isn't good. Jesus died for us? No he didn't. He died because of his ego and narcissism. Talking animals? Again, that's fantasy and animals can't really talk. You know it and I know it. A loving, caring, god wouldn't damn all of us to hell for living our life. Again to all the Christians that see this and try to convince me or other people that god is good, please do not waste your time
Trust yourself and your intuition. If god exists, they gave you your brain for a reason! Just use it to come to the most honest conclusions you can come to. Don't rush yourself. Just be kind and patient with yourself on this journey

66 books that were allowed to stay in the Bible Canon. MANY books were kept out cuz MAN didn't think they should be there.
And Any believer who defends these passages can only do so at the cost of his own empathy and humanity.

Hosea 13:16 is my go to when people tell me that God is pro-life
N.u.m.b.e.r.s. 5 e.l.e.v.e.n. Through 22 is mine.
Hosea, Hoshea, Joshua, or Jesus = the Savior SUN.
Isaiah 13 is more of the same, and even more explicit about who is doing it.
@@WS-dd8ow
Isaiah 13
Passing chap, 12, which is a mere song of joy, because of the presence of summer, I next come to the burden, oracle, or prophecy of, or concerning Babylon, or winter; for this myth of the year, which I have all along been dealing with, must be made to assume every conceivable form.
Isaiah (the Savior the Sun), the son of Amoz (the zodiac), is the seer or prophet. The noise of the nations of the mountains (summer months) comes from the end of the heaven of the Lord (Jahveh), with the weapons of his indignation (the winter) to destroy the whole land - to stop the growth of vegetation (v. 5), and to lay the land desolate, i.e., to deprive it of the direct rays of the Sun (v. 9). Therefore, howl ye; for the (last) day of the Lord (Jahveh = summer) is at hand; "it shall come as a destruction from the Almighty" (v. 6). This last sentence gives but an imperfect idea of the original keshod mishaddai jabo = " it shall come according to the failure of the breasts;" thus implying the gradual cessation of the summer crops; when "they shall be afraid; pangs and sorrows shall take hold of them" (v. 8).
"This (equinoctial day) of the Lord (Jahveh) cometh cruel, both with wrath and fierce anger" (v. 9); for the constellations, i.e., the six summer constellations, shall not give their (summer) light, the Sun shall be darkened (as in winter), and the moon shall not cause her light (but that of the Sun) to shine (v. 10). Thus, will I, by the hardships of winter, punish the world for their evil, i.e., for getting into the winter hemisphere? Behold, I will stir up the Medes (middle days, or such as partake of winter and summer) against them, which shall not regard silver (summer); and as for gold (spring), they shall not delight in it, for the time will be winter, the iron age (v. 17).
At v. 19 we come to the prophecy of the destruction, or end of Babylon or winter. In her last days, i.e., at the end of winter, Babylon, "the glory of kingdoms, the beauty of the Chaldees' excellency," shall be as (it was) when God (Elohim = Aries in summer) overthrew Sodom and Gomorrah (winter), i.e., it shall remain as it was when Sodom and Gomorrah were overthrown. The question will naturally arise: What was Babylon's condition at the overthrow of Sodom and Gomorrah? Was Babylon the same as Sodom and Gomorrah? Of course, the ordinary reader thinks it was destroyed as were Sodom and Gomorrah, and the text seems to bear out that idea. If destroyed as Sodom and Gomorrah were, then must the same phenomena have happened. There must have been a shower of fire and brimstone, and somebody's wife must have been turned into a pillar of salt, etc. (see Gen. 19, for the details).
Again: If it was to remain as Sodom and Gomorrah, then, since there are left no traces of these cities, there can be none of Babylon. This idea is well supported by Dr. Adam Clarke, who relates - "that by the concurrent testimony of modern travelers, no remains, not the least traces of these prodigious works, are now to be found " (comment, in loco.) Babylon (bab = gate; el = ram; on = Sun, the gate of the Ram-Sun, or Eloh = winter solstice) was a mythological city, like all Bible cities. The name may have been transferred to Earth, as in other instances, Heliopolis (Sun-city), etc., for example.
Of course, time past can "never be inhabited," except by creatures of the imagination; "doleful creatures," as satyrs, etc. The owls or ostriches must be left out, as they are not mentioned in the Hebrew text.

fwiw Hosea 13.16 was included at 4:21.
“But that’s the Old Testament”
-Yeah, but the same God. 🙄🙄🙄
Nothing new under the Sun.
It's really not the same god. The word "Lord" in the Old testament is Baal. He is basically an evil ruler. Jesus didn't pray to Baal but to the Heavenly Father. Humans wrote both the Old and the New Testament but the New is much better. Jesus said, that we will worship God in Spirit and in Truth. This goes beyond a book. This is about a personal relationship with the Source of All.
@indiawilkins9750 Jesus accused the Jews of worshipping the devil. That was their god. Their god is the Old testament god. You can find the whole true story in the book of John..
@@marymack2024 lol. 'true story'. you got any other cherries you wanna pick? i guess we can dismiss the 10 commandments, since that isnt your god?
@marymack2024 The OT/NT god is the worst character in the history of fiction.
And jesus never actually said anything.
If God sees the past, present and future, and all that he creates is perfect. Then why didn't he see Lucifer malfunction and that 1/3 of heaven's angels would rebel against him. And why couldn't he stop Eve from eating the fruit if he could see that she was going to ruin humanity? That is always the questions I asked and pastors brushed it off.

Thanks Kristi! Love your content. Glad you're back!
As far as I’m concerned, there is no god of any holy book, no such things as ghosts, holy or not. The God of the Bible is fiction, created by ancient people of an ancient time, a god and world view that is obsolete and irrelevant in our world today. Superb work here, incredibly important information for the progress of humanity. Yay! 🎉
So the ancients who developed the first writting system, mathematics, mapped out the heavens, built the ziggarats of Mesopotamia, the great pyramids of Giza and other great wonders and who understood the complexities of the brain didnt know what they were doing when they wrote the sacred text we call the holy bible.
Okay 😂

I was born atheist and I remember the first time I ever heard abt Jesus it was thru a song where the lyrics were "when Jesus says yes nobody can say no" and that was playing in my kindergarden- so I asked my teacher "who was Jesus?" And she says sum like "Our father" and I remember going home thinking that I had 2 dads until I asked my mom who Jesus was 💀🖐🏾 I ain't seen either of my fathers since 🤡✨
It's because they are usually ex religious which makes them experts 🙌
A good answer to the bible question is, "Have you fixed it yet?"
Exactly! My case, I as former believer of Bible actually didn’t read it clearly and honestly😅I understood it clearly after I woke and listened the Atheists finding the nonsense points and parts of it!
Lots of truth in this comment.
You and Brandon Collins are such a delight for those of us who have deconstructed. Thoughtful and considerate critiques of a faith system that has so many problems and is not worth believing once you recognize those many problems. And I say that as someone who was immersed in the Christian faith until my early 50s when I started recognizing the many issues with the belief system and walked away.
The thing that baffles me the most is that this God, is supposed to be omniscient, omnipotent, omnipresent, and benevolent, but hardly ever acts like it. The flood, the genocide, didn't even work. It was pointless, or at the very least, fleeting. I'm disappointed that i was gonna devote my life to Christianity.
Just by seeing Christian nationalist behave and preach that a monster like Trump is a godsend is enough for me to know that religion is archaic and the single greatest threat to our planet.
I'm glad you have escaped the cult.
It's almost like they developed it as they went. I keep telling people who chant "Jesus loves you" that I don't support genocide and then they try to argue that the flood was warranted 🤦
Hardly ever acts like it? You must have not read 99.9% of the Bible. You'll be disappointed again one day.
@@Marco855-z7x😂😂😂😂😂 oh that's laughable considering that in the Bible God kills millions of people while Satan killed nobody.

Consider yourself blessed. When the hooks get in deep over decades, it’s an ugly psychological mess to unravel, and takes time, work, and suffering.
If the Bible was the inspired word of God, he or she would have written it in a very straightforward way that wouldn’t lead to confusion. The fact that the Bible isn’t written that way, that it’s way too centered on Israel, on men, on leaders, on winning wars and on threatening us with consequences from a narcissistic male God, should make more people reconsider what they believe.
Biblical Israel never was.
@@docforest4851 Exactly! And those wars! Imagine God was using HUMAN to kill Any LIVING ONES, ANIMALS too, for His so-called GLORY! I deeply regret why I hadn’t recognized earlier this HORRIFIC FACT in this book and was preaching that its the best book!
On the story of Job (which is terrible all around), I always think the worst part is the killing of Job's 10 children. They are simply killed as part of the bet. Sure, Job gets another batch of children at the end, but: What about those 10 individuals whose cold-blooded murder God permitted? Do they get any restitution? They've been robbed of their lives, simply because they were Job's children. They story doesn't give a hoot about them. They are ranked with Job's cattle and camels: replaceable assets.
Job's three daughters and three friends are the thee seasons of winter, spring, and summer (same as Shem/Nahor, Japheth/Abram, and Ham/Haran. The seven sons are the seven months that begins at the spring equinox. Each of the three trinities consists of four signs and four months. All three are in the order of Fire/Scarlet, Earth/Linen, Air/Blue, and Water/Purple.
Very insightful Kristi. Glad your back!,
Believers ask, "Who are you to question God?" I'm not questioning a perfect god, I'm questioning the myth of an evil being claiming to be god. The god described in the bible is an impotent, not-all-knowing, evil being. I would choose not to worship it, even if it were real (which it's not). I ask, "Why choose to worship an evil dictator?"
I wonder if that's why tRump targets Christian Nationals - and they actually praise the convicted felon sex offender, thinking it's perfectly moral to support a 'being' like that (just like their god).
Why? Out of personal interest. I'm not going to stand up to a dictator. I know how that ends.

[3] Now go and smite Amalek, and utterly destroy all that they have, and spare them not; but slay both man and woman, infant and suckling, ox and sheep, camel and ass.
Doesn't sound like a loving God to me
Typical of the god character.
The bible was put together by people with less education than most of us. They put in the bible4 what they thought would work.
“Lord of hosts” is a clue: jhwh is a warlord.
Volcano, Dragon, Storm SKY PSYCHO
@@christophergibson7155No. That's the all point of this video: no "righteous judments" over there.
Can't wait for the ridiculous response videos themed "You're taking it out of context"
That's what I was thinking too!
@@zhengfuukusheng9238 Yes, as if these believers, All are the ones who wrote this book! Makes me laugh whenever my Christian acquaintance tries to make excuses of what I’m just exactly referring the statements, passages in this book! I rather ask Are you the Author, that knows what actually is the meaning behind it!?
The bible: *literally says God creates calamity and evil*
People who are deconstructing: 👀
Christians: That's out of context!
Rather I would question an atheists basis for "goodness".
To judge God's morality from atheist pov is nonsensical, as their morality is completely arbitrary and relative. Just appealing to your own emotional states.
To know better than God, you would have to know the future, do you know the repercussions of what takes place? None of us knows, therefore any second guessing is absurd.
Proverbs 1:26
This is what happens when you don’t fear god:
[26] I also will laugh at your calamity; I will mock when your fear cometh;
[27] When your fear cometh as desolation, and your destruction cometh as a whirlwind; when distress and anguish cometh upon you.
Nice right ? It’s all about love ❤️
Great video, masterfully laid out. I hope people will truly think about everything you highlighted here.
You took a hiatus and I'm so happy you're back. I hope you are doing okay.
I am, thanks so much for your concern ❤️❤️😊
We cannot comprehend Him in the flesh, yet there is a constant battle who's side is correct! Athiests cherry pick the "evil" verses, Christians choose the "good" verses. Truth is there's tons we don't understand or know about the spiritual realm since we haven't died and gone there yet..but billions of opinions on who is "right".. Gonna be a fun time talking about all of this in Eternity ✌️
@@Tom-and-Jerry-again been following Christ 25+ yrs and never had any"spiritual" experiences.. i just know Jesus is King and there's plenty more to learn after life here. I believe this life is only a small glimpse of things to come.. God Bless! ✌️
@@Tom-and-Jerry-again Well for the last 2000 years i guess all believers are in that boat! very next verse(30) says He did plenty more but it wasnt written down.. will be much to chat about in Paradise ✌️
@@Tom-and-Jerry-again ah yes, testimonies.. something else we get plenty of time to talk about in eternity and how we are all connected.. enjoy your weekend✌️
Bottom line: God exists only in people's heads, and the Bible is 100% man-made, with as much divine inspiration as Hamlet, Harry Potter, The Wind in the Willows, and The Adventures of Alice in Wonderland. For a refreshing antidote to pseudoscience visit TH-cam channel Forrest Valkai. For enlightened perspectives on Christianity, Mindshift is the channel to check out. Kristi Burke is likewise a breath of fresh air. Christianity is just a sad and unhappy anachronism, a dressed-up and worn-out mythology. It should be so obvious. Please disseminate widely. People deserve better than what they've been getting. They have a right to know that they have been hoodwinked for two millennia.
Ah, what a GOD! With a God like this, who needs a Devil? 🤪
